How it works
Knit beanie with lace pattern
Cast on 120 sts with the needles you selected.
Join the sts to the round and mark the beginning of the round.
Cuff:
- Knit in the round in pattern I (needle size US 4/ 3½mm) until 1.6" (4 cm) from cast on (approx. 14 rounds).
-
Now knit in the round with US 6 (4 mm) needle, picking up 8 sts (increase 1 stitch every 15th stitch).
Beanie:
- Now continue in pattern II, knitting the repeat 8 times (see tip) = 128 sts.
Tip: The 11th round in pattern II begins with 1 slipped decrease, but the last sts of the 10th round is slipped instead.
Decreases:
Continue knitting in pattern III at approx. 7.5" (19 cm) from cast on (after the 54th round) and start with the final decreases:
- From the beginning of the round: * Knit 14 sts, knit 2 sts crossed together *, repeat from * to * 8 times = 120 sts.
-
Knit 1 round without decreases.
Repeat these decreases every 2nd round (always with 1 sts less between decreases) until there are 16 sts left on the needle.
Pull the remaining 16 sts together with the end of the yarn and sew.
